Hut she hurried on, Impelled by sho
know not what,, through tho dining
room, and, coming to the veranda,
stopped short, with diluting eyes and
a cry of grievous flhock. Two of his
men were carrying Dellarmo back
from the breastwork, where they had
caught him In their arms as he full.
They laid him gently on tho sward
'with a knapsack under his head. His
face grow whiter with the flow of
blood from tho red hole In tho right
breast of his blouse. Then ho opened
his lips and whlspured to the doctor:
"How Is It?" Something In his eyes,
In the tone of that faliit question, re
qulrod the grace of n soldlor's truth
In answer,
"Had!" said the doctor.
"Then, good-hy!" And his head fell
to ouo side, his lips sot In hlu choory
smile. i
H(u company was a company with
Ills smile out of Us heart and in its
)huo blank dospalr. Many of tho men
had stopped firing. Some had oven
run back to look at him unit stood,
cups off, backs to tho enemy, minor
Ablq In their grief. Others leanod
agulnat tho pnraiwt, rlfleo out of hand,
ntnrlng nnd dazed.
'They have killed our captain!"
"They've klllod our captain I "still
a captain to them. A general's stjira
could not havo rnlsed him a cubit In
their estimation.
"And onefs wo callod him 'llaby Del
Inrme,' he was so young and bashful!
Him a baby? Ho was a king!"
"Men, got to your places!" cried tho
surviving lloutonant rather hopelessly,
with no Dellarme to show him what
to do; and Marta saw that few paid
any attention to him,
In thut mjnuto of demoralization tho
Grays had thefr chance, but only for a
mlnuto. A volco that aoemed to speak
Homo uncontrollable thought of hor
own broke In, and It rang with the au
thority and leadership of n maturo or
fleer's commund, oven though coming
from a gardonor In blue blouse and
crownleas straw hat
"Your rifles, your rifles, ciulckl"
called Feller. "We're only beginning
to light!"
And then another voice In a bull
roar, Stransky's:
"Aveugo hlH death! They've got to
MM the last man of us for killing him!
llflvcugo! Itovongo!"
That cry brought back to tho com
pany all the lighting spirit of the
cheery smllo and with It another spirit
for Dellarmo's sukel-whlch ho had
never taught them.
Stransky picked up one of several
cylindrical objects that wore lying at
Ills feet
"He wouldn't use this ho was too
soft-heartedhut I will!" ho cried, and
flung n hand-grenade, and then n sec
ond, ovor tho broastwork. Tho oxplo
(ilous were followed by agonized
Kroana from tho drays hugging the
lower side of tho torrneo. For this
they hud crawled acrowi the road in
the night to find themselves unablo
to move either way and directly undqr
tho flashes of tho Urowns' rifles.
Feller's and Stransky's shouts roao
together in n peculiar unity of direc
tion and full ot the fellowship thoy
had found In thoir first exchange of
glances.
"You engineers, make ready 1"
"Hand-grenades to tho men under
tho trcol That's where thoy'ro going
to try for it no wall to climb over
there 1"
"You engineers, take your rlllca
and bayonot into unythlng that wears
gray!"
"(let back, you men by the tree, to
.avoid their hand-grenades I Form up
behind them, everybody I"
"No .matter If thoy do got In at llrst!
Jlack, you men, from under tho troe!"
There was not a single rifle-shot. In

and tho more readily obeyed because
Dellarmo's foresight had impressed
their senso upon the men, In his quiet
way.
The sand-bags by the tree wore
blown up by tho CJrnys. Then, before
tho dust had hardly settled, camo a
half Bcoro of hand-grenades thrown by
the first men of a Gray wedge, scram
bling as they were pushod through
the breach by tho pressure of tho
mass behind. In that llnnl struggle
of one net of men to gain and another
to hold a position, guns or automatics
or long-range bullets played no part.
It was the grapple of cold steol with
cold steel and muscle with musclo, in
tho billowing, twlBtlng mob of wres
tlers, with no sound from throats but
straining breaths; with no quarter, no
distinction of person, nnd bloodshot
oyos and faces hot with tho effort of
brute Blrongth striving, In primitive
desperation, to kill In order not to bo
killed. Tho cloud of rocking, writhing
arms nnd shoulders was neither go
ing forward nor backward. Its move
ment was that of a vortex, whllo tho
gray stream kept on pouring through
the breach as if it were only the first
flood from eomo gray lako on the
other side of the breastwork.
Marta had come to tho edge of the
voranda, nt once drawn and repelled,
feeling the fearful suspense of the
combat, tho savage horror of It. and
hcrBolf uttering sounds llko tho strain
ing broaths of tho men. What a place
for her to bo! But she did not think
of that. She was there. The dreadful
alchemy of war had made her a
stranger to herself. She was mad;
they were mad; all tho world was
mad!
Ono mlnuto two, porhaps not
three and tho thing was over. Sho
saw tho Grays being crushed back and
realized that the Urowns had won,
whllo tho. last details of the lessening
tumult fixed her nttcntlon with their
gladiatorial simplicity. Here, indeed,
It was a caso of man to man with tho
weapons nature gave him.
"1 thought sol" cried Feller. "At
tacks on frontal positions by daylight
are going out of fashion!"
It was ho who mercifully arrested
tho shower of hand-grenades that fol
lowed the exit of tho enemy. Two of
tho guns of tho castle batteries, hav
ing changed thoir position, were mak
ing havoc onough at poTntblnnk rnngo,
with a cholco of targets between
tho Grays huddled on tho other side
of tho brenBtwork and those In retreat.
One of tho Grays, his cheek bearing
tho mark of u boot heel, raised him
self, and, In doflanco nnd tho Batlsfac-
"You, There, In Your Straw Hat and
Blue Qlouie."
tlou ot tho thought to his bruises and
humiliation, pointing his linger at Fel
ler, Marta heard him say:
"You there, in your straw hat and
Mud blouse, they've scon youn mun
lighting and not In uniform! If they
catch you it will bo a drumhead and a
llrlug squad nt dawn!'
"Thnt'B o!" replied Foller gravoly.
"But they'll have to make a bettor
Job of it than you fellows did It they're
going to"
Ho turned away abruptly but did not
move far. Ills shoulders relaxed Into
tho gardenor's stoop, and he pulled
IiIb hat down over his oyeH and low
ered his head as It to hide bis faco,
Ho was thus standing, lnort, when a
division staff-olllcer galloped Into the
grounds.
"Where Is Major Dellarmo?"
Whou he saw Dellarmo's still body
ho dismounted nnd in a tldo ot feel
ing which, for tho moment, submerged
all thought ot tho machtuo, stood,
head bowed and cap off, looking dowu
at Dellarmo's faco,

"I wnB very fond of him I Ho was at
school when I was teaching there.
But a good death a soldier's death I"
ho said. "I'll write to hlo mother my
self." Then tho voice of tho machine
spoke. "Who is in command?"
"I am, sir!" said tho callow lieuten
ant, coming up. But tho men of the
company spoke.
"Bert Stransky!" thoy roared.
It was not according to military etl
quotte, but military ottquetto moant
nothing to them now. Thoy wore
above It in veteran superiority.
"Where's Stransky?" demanded tho
staff-officer.
"You'ro looking at him!" replied
Stransky with a benign grin,
Seeing that Stransky was only a pri
vate, tho officer frowned at tho anom
aly when a lieutenant was present,
then smiled in a way that accorded
the company parliamentary rights,
which he thought that thoy had fully
earned.
"Yes, and ho gots one of those Iron
crosses!" put In Tom Frnglnl.
"Yes tho first cross for Bert of tho
Reds!"
"And we'll let htm make a dozen
anarchist speeches n day!"
"Yes, yes!" roared tho company.
"Tho ayes havo it!" the officer an
nounced cheerfully. He lifted his cap
to Marta. With tender record and
vgravo reverence for that company, ho
took extreme caro with his next ro
mark lest a set of men of such dy
namic spirit might rcpulso him as an
Invader. "The lieutenant Is In com
mand for tho prosent, , according to
regulations," he proceeded. "You will
retire Immediately to positions 48 and
49 A J by the castlo road. You havo
done your part. Tonight you sleep
and tomorrow you rest."
Sleep! Rest! Whore had they
heard those words before? Oh, yes,
In a distant day beforo they went to
war! Sleep and rest! Better far than
an Iron cross for every man in tho
company! Thoy could go now with
something warmer In their hearts
than consciousness of duty well done;
but this time they need not go until
their dead as well as their wounded
were removed.
Feller started to pass around tho
corner of tho house; he was confront
ed by Marta, who had come to tho end
of the veranda. Thoro, within hearing
of the soldiers, the dialogue that fol
lowed was low-toned, and It was swift
and palpitant with repressed emotion.
"Mr. Feller, I saw you at tho auto
matic. I heard what the wounded pri
vate of tho Grays said to you and
realized how true It was."
"Ho Is a prisoner. Ho cannot tell."
"1 feel that I havo no right to lot
you go to your death by a flrlng
squad," sho interrupted hurriedly,
"und I shall not! For 1 decide now
not to allow the telephone to remain!"
"l"r he looked around nt the auto
matic ravenously und fearsomcly
"It Is nil simply nrranged. There
is time for me to uso the telephone
before tho Grays arrive, I shall tell
Lanny why you took charge of tho
gun.".
"I've changed my mind! Exit gar
donor! Enter gunner! I'm going
with you!" ho cried in a Jubilant voice
thnt arrested the attention of every
one pn the grounds.
CHAPTER XIII.
From Brown to Gray.
"You, Marta you arb BtiU there!"
Lanstron exclaimed In alarm when ho
heard hor volco over tho tunnel tele
phone. "But Bafo!" ho added In re
lief. "Thank God for that! It's a
mighty load off my mind. And your
mother?"
"Safe, too."
"Well, you'ro through the worst of
It. There won't bo nny more fighting
around tho house, and certainly West
orliug will be courteous. But where
Is Gustavo?"
"Gonol"
"Gonel" ho repeated dismally.
"Walt until you hear how ho wont,"
Mnrta Bald. With all the vividness ot
her Impressions, a partisan for tho mo
ment of him and Dellarme, she
Bkctchcd Feller's pnrt with the auto
matic. As he listened, Lnnstron's spirit was
twenty ngain.
"I can seo him," he said. "It was a
full breath of fresh air to the lungs
ot a suffocating man. I "
Marta was off In Interruption In the
full tide of an nppeal.
"You must I promised you must
let him havo the uniform again!" she
begged, "You must let him keep his
automatic. To take It away would
bo llko separating mothor nnd child;
llko separating Minna from Clarissa
Eileen."
"Bettor than w. automatic a bat
tery of guns!" replied Lanstron. "This
is where I will use any Influence I
havo with Pnrtow for all It Is worth.
Yes, nnd ho shall havo tho Iron croBs.
It is for uuch deeds as his that the
Iron cross was mrnnt."
"Thank you," alio said. "It's worth
something (to make a man as happy us
you will make him. Yes, you are real
Jlesh and blood to do this, Lanny."
Her point won with surprising easo,
when she had feared that military
form and law could not bo circum
vented, bIih leaned against the wall
in renctlou. For twenty-four hours
sho had been without sleop. Tho In
terest of her appeal for Foller had
kept up her strength after tho excite
ment of the fight for the rodoubt was
over. Now thoro seemed nothing left
to do.
"That's flno of you, Lnnnyl" she
Bald. "You've taken It like a good
stole, this loss of your thousandth
chance. You really believed in it,
uldu you?"
"Forgotten already, llko tho many
other thousandth chanceu that havo
failed," ho replied cheerfully. "One
of tho virtues of Partow's steel au
tomatons Is that, being tearless as
well as passionless, they never cry
over spilt milk. And now," he went
on soberly, "wo must bo saying good
by." "Good-by, Lanny? Why, what do
you mean?" Sho was startled.
"Till tho war Is ovor," ho said, "and
longer than thnt, perhaps, lf La Tir
remains In Gray territory."
"You speak as If you thought you
were going to lose!"
"Not whllo many of our soldiers are
alive, If thoy continue to show tho
spirit that they have shown so far;
not unless two men can crush ono
man In the automatlcgun-recoll age.
But La Tlr Is in a tangent nnd ulready
In tho Grays' possession, whllo wo net
on the defensive. So I should hnrdly
bo flying over your garden again."
"But there's tho telephone, Lanny,
nnd here we are talking over it this
very minute!" she expostulated.
"You miiBt romovo It," he said. "If
tho Grays should discover it they
might form a suspicion thnt would put
you In on unplensant position."
The telephone had becomo almost a
familiar Institution In her thoughts.
Its secret had something of the fasci
nation for her of magic.
"Nonsense!" she exclaimed. "I am
going to be very lonely. X want to
learn how Foller 1b doing I want to
chnt with you. So I decide, not to let
It be taken out. And, you see, I linve
the tactical situation as you soldiers
call it, all In my favor. The work
of romovnl must be dono at my end
of tho lino. . You're quite helpless to
enforce your wishes. And, Lnnny, It
I ring tho boll you'll answer, won't
you?" ,
"I couldn't help It!" ho replied.
"Until then! You've been flno about
everything today!"
"Until then!"
When Marta left the tower ehe knew
only that sho was weary with the.
mlnd-wearlness, the body-weariness,
tho nerve-weariness of a spectator who
ha3 sharod the emotion of every actor
in a drama of denth nnd HndB the ex
citement that has kept her tense no
longer a sustaining force.
As she wont along tho path, steps
uncertain from sheer fatigue, her sen
sibilities livened again at the bight of
a picture. War, personal war, In the
form of the giant Stransky, was knock
ing at tho kitchen door. His two-days-old
beard was matted with dust and
there were dried red spatters on his
cheek. War's furnace flamce seemed
to havo tanned him; war seemed to
be breathing from his deep chest; his
big nose was war's promontory. But
the unexposed spneo of his forehead
seemed singularly white when he took
off his cap as Minna came in answer
to his knock. Her yielding lips were
parted, her eyes were bright with in
quiry nnd suspicion, her chin was
flrmly set.
"I camo to sco if you would let mo
kiss your hand again," said Stransky,
squinting. through his brows wistfully.
"I seo your nose nns boon broken
once. You don't want It broken a sec
ond time. I'm Btronqer than you
think!" Minna retorlqd, and held out
her hand carelessly ps if it pleased
her to humor him.
He was rather graceful, despite his
slzo, as he touched his lips to her fin
gers. Just as he raised his head a
buret of cheering rose from the yard.
"So you've found that wo have gone,
you brilliant intellects!" he shouted,
and glarod at the wall of the house In
the direction of the cheers.
"Quick! You have no time to lose!"
Minna warned him.
"Quick! "quick!" cried Marta.
Stransky paid no attention to tho
urglngs. He had something more to
say to Minna.
"I'm going to keep thinking of you
nnd seeing your face the face of a
good woman while I flght. An,d when
tho war is over, may I camo to call?"
he asked.
His feet wore so resolutely planted
on the flags that apparently the only
way to move thorn was to consent.
"Yes, yes!" gald Minna. "Now,
hurry ! '
"Say, but you make me happy I
Watch mo poke It Into tho Grays for
you!" he cried and bolted.
Within tho kitchen Mrs. Gnllnnd
was already slumbering soundly in
her chair. Overhead Marta heard the
exclamations of male voices and the
tread, of what was literally tho heel
of tho conqueror guests that had
como without asking! Intruders that
had entered without any process of
law I Would thoy overrun the house,
hor mother's room, her own room? '
Indignation brought fresh strength
as she started up the stairs. Tho
head of the flight gave on to a dark
part of tho hall. There she paused,
held by the scene thnt a score or
more Gray soldiers, who had riotously
crowded into the dining-room, were
ennctlng. They wero members of
Fracnsso's company of tho Grays
whom Marta had seen from her win
dow tho night beforo rushing across
the road Into the garden. i
When, finally, thoy burst Into the
redoubt after It wns found that the
Browns hnd gone, all, oven tho judge's
Ron, wero the war demon's own. The
veneor hnd been warped and twisted
and burned off down to the raw ani
mal flesh. Their brains hnd tho fevor
itch of callouses forming. Not u sign
of brown there In tho yard; not a sign
of nny tribute after all they had en
dured! Thoy had not been able to lay
bauds on the murderous throwers of
hand-grenadeB. Far away now was
barrack-room geniality; In oblivion
wero tho ethics ot an Inherited civili
zation taught by mothers, teachers nnd
church.
But hero was a houso a house of
the Browns; a big, lino Iioubo! They
would soo what thoy had won this
was tho privilcgo of baffled victory.
What thoy had won was theirs! To

crowded Into tho dining-room, Hugo
with tho rest, feeling himself a straw
on tho crest of a wave, nnd Pllzor,
most bfttcr, most ugly of all, his short,
strong toeth nnd gums showing and
his liver patch red, lumpy, and trem
bling. In crossing the threshold of
privacy they committed the act thnt
.leaves the deepest wound ot war's In
heritance, to go on from generation
to generation In tho history of fami
lies, "A swell dining-room I I llko tho
chandeliers!" roared Pllzer.
With his bayonot ho smashed tho
only globe left Intact by the she'll flro.
There was a laugh as a shower of
glass fell on the floor. Even the

law, Joined In. Pllzor then ripped up
tho leather seat of a chair. This In
troductory havoc whetted his appetite
for other worlds of conquest, as the
self-chosen leader of tho increasing
crowd that poured through the door
way. "Maybe there's food!" he shouted.
"Maybe there's wine!"
"Food and wine!"
"Yes, wine! We're thlrBty!"
"And maybe women! I'd like to kiss
a pretty maid servant!" Pllzer added,
starting toward the'hall.
"Stop!" cried Hugo, forcing his way
in front of Pllzer.
He was like no ono of the Hugos of
tho many parts that his comrades had
Been him play. His blue eyes had be
come an inflexible gray. He was stand
ing half on tiptoe, his quivering
muscles In tune with the quivering
pitch of his voice:
"We have no right In hero! This Is
a private house!"
"Out of the way, you white-livered
little rat!" cried Pllzer, "or I'll prick
tho tummy of mamma's darling!"
What happened then was so sudden
and unexpected that all wore vague
about details. They saw Hugo in a
catapultlc lunge, mesmeric In its swift
ness, and they saw Pllzor go down, his
leg twisted under him and his hend
banging the floor. Hugo stood, half
ashamed, half frightened, yet ready
for another encounter.
Fracasse, entering at this moment,
Was too Intent on his mission to con
sider the rights of a pcisonal differ
ence between two of his company.
"There's work to do! Out of here,
quick! We are losing valunble time!"
he announced, rounding his men to
ward the door with commanding ges
tures. "Wo are going In pursuit!"
Marta, who had observed the latter
part of tho acene from the shadows ot
tho hall, knew that she should never
forget Hugo's face as he turned on Pll
zer, while his voice of protest struck
a slhglng chord in her Jangling nerves.
It was tlie voice of civilization, of one
who could think out of the orbit of a
whirlpool of passionate barbarism.
She could see thnt he was about to
spring nnd her prayer went with his
leap. She gloried in the Impact that
felled the great brute with the liver
pntch on his cheek, which was like a
birthmark of war.

Seeing, vs. Photographing.
The relative sensitiveness of th
photographic plate and th,e human eye
has been tho subject of recent Inter
esting experiments by Professor P. G.
Nutting, of Rochester. An extra rapid
plate was used for tho tests. A source
of light that could be "dimmed" at
will and to any degree was placed
twenty feet away from the plate and
from the eye. The professor found
that a light so dim that It required
three hours to produce a Just percep
tible Imago on the extremely senstlve
plate wns easily visible to tho human
eyo after resting tho latter for three
minutes in total darkness. "In other
words," adds Professor Nutting, "an
Imago on tho retina Just visible after
partinl adaptation to darkness wnild
just produce an Image on a photo
grnplc plate aftor an exposure of one
hour. Tho retina fully adapted to
darkness Is still a thousand times
more sensitive than this."
